Some of Amazons software engineers and IT techs may be privy to proprietary Amazon corporate information. Whether they realize it or not. Amazon has an interest it how and when this information will be made public. And who will speak for their interests.
Many companies have policies regarding the release of their private information to the public.
I got that, after perusing TFS. But it's still a good reason to drop the dual usage. It's use in confusing situations should be sanctioned.
I just don't want the algorithms to be designed to make me feel bad.
I think Google search has a boolean to exclude truths that run counter to your world view.

Garbage regulations like IP create these behemoths. If you want freedom, stop regulating monopolies into existence.
Whether you like it or not, social media is the new public square.
The door of some church in Wittenburg doesn't curate your theses. Nor does it algorithmically select which ones to offer you.
These activities alone should disqualify a site from Section 230 protections.
Friend of mine had a son who started nagging for stuff. She asked for advice. I suggested leaving a couple of brochures for military acadamies lying around. Worked like a charm.
Meta is just a front for NABMLA.
You would think that with a former-lawyer as the prime minister now it would get sorted
You'd think that with a former human rights lawyer as the prime minister, he wouldn't be so keen on shitting on human rights.
No for Starmer, everything was just a stepping stone on his career ladder.
It's weird but he's a vacuum. He doesn't appear to stand for anything in particular. This is why none of the decisions make much sense as a whole, why there's no coherence, why he has no articulated vision, why the policies are a complete mishmash.
But it's weirder. He doesn't even seem to stand for enriching himself beyond career climbing. He's somewhat non corrupt as these things go (I mean the glasses thing was dumb shit but small fry on the scale of these thing).
So sure he knows about the courts and human rights and etc but he doesn't stand for any of them.
Actually scratch that.
Judging him by what he's achieved, about the only thing he has been consistent on is a kind of petty authoritarianism with him in charge. This isn't even to say he hasn't done anything good (he manifestly has), but as part of a weird directionless morass (nationalise the trains, but repeat water company press releases about why that's impossible for water, for example).
Starmer is still better than the alternatives (Farage, Badenoch) but that's not saying much. The alternatives are just that shit.
Labour need to backtrack on the authoritarianism pronto, otherwise we'll be proper fucked the next time a real authoritarian gets in (like Trump bum buddy Farage). Some of the laws they're creating are made to be abused, even though Starmer isn't going to abuse them (he lacks the initiative, drive and imagination for that)
They have no problem taking out loans on unrealized assets so if they are worth it to the banks, they can pay taxes on them.
Be careful of this kind of rhetoric.
Billionaire trickle-down-fuck-YOU-pay-for-it-pleb economics will ensure retired homeowners on a fixed income end up losing their homes, because tax the shit out of those 'urealized gains' called home equity..
The simple answer to this is "if you want public money, give us parts of your company, otherwise fuck off and die". Also if we capped or outright stopped losses from being used to minimise taxes on profits it would help protect us against reckless billionaires.
Statism creates billionaires.
I'm hoping that some of these unwashed masses voting for this thing are employees of Google, Apple, etc. And I want to be a fly on the wall when the boss says, "Pack up your stuff. The company is moving to Wyoming."
Fleeing with hoarded money
I see you seem to have learned your economics watching Saturday morning cartoons. The wealth isn't being hoarded. It isn't even sitting around in the form of money. What will be fleeing the state is capital to support existing businesses and create new ones. Which means jobs. And future tax revenue. The state is going to lose far more in recurring revenue than it will ever see from their one time tax.
Aircraft manufacturing data. Done. Decades ago.
The weight of the documentation must be greater than the weight of the airplane before it is permitted to fly.
Ever hear of high functioning alcoholics ?
No.
the US Trump cabinet is full of them.
Not high functioning by any stretch of the imagination. Although Trump might be the exception that proves the rule: He doesn't drink.
